There is a liability on each of the properties with a boundary to the prospectively maintainable highway, to contribute to the cost of the making up of the road to adoptable standard when required by the County Council. This would be payable by the frontagers and apportioned on a pro-rata basis.

Hampshire County Council currently has no proposals to require prospectively maintainable highways to be made up to adoptable standards.

Utility rights

Utility undertakers (electricity, gas,water etc.) have the right to enter and install new or repair the existing apparatus, without seeking the permission of the subsoil owners.
